Ways to keep your PC cool

Ways to keep your PC cool

Hi Jenvieann,

There are a few basic things that you can do to help cool your PC. You want to keep the components as cool as possible so it is important to ensure that the air vents are kept clear in order to allow the air to circulate properly.

So if your PC is near any obstructions like a wall for example, I would suggest that you move it away a few inches because most fans are built at the back. Another thing you could do is to make sure that there is not a build up of dust and or debree around your PC, dust can easily clog your PC cooling fans causing them to work slower thus heating up your PC.

Cleaning your computer with canned air is also a good idea. There is a cooling fan that is located above the CPU, you definitely want to give that a good clean with the canned air to get rid of any dirt. If all these options don't work you may want to consider installing cooling fans to attach either side of the computer case, they help increase airflow intake and allow air to better move through the computer.

Hope this helps.
